Don Scott - Summertime NY [tekst, tłumaczenie i interpretacja piosenki]

[Verse 1]

When you fallin for these girls should you let them know?
A pimp told me if you love them you should let them go
Uncle snoop told me we don't love these hoes
Stay hard for your kinfolk live fast and sip slow

But man we always had dreams to be the niggas in the Benz though
Pull up at the party on some shawtys roll the windows
Hollering at her girls like "whats good with your friend though?"
Tricks of the trade that we learned on the low

Summertime NY had niggas on they're grind
Top down getting fly anything for the shine
Them dope boys fresh from the nickles and them dimes
Picture me still a broke nigga pocket full of rhymes

For every girl there's a song for these wrongs I write
Like common before he found the light ha...
So tell me girl cuz you're feelin like Kyptonite
To all these bloods and these crips tonight
Its alright like...

[Verse 2]


I keep my head above water just trying to stay alive
Where niggas bumpin 50 like they're stuck in 05
Rockin tims in the summertime throwing up signs
Spend a stack on them rims for your broke ass ride
In Wingate Park and the block hotter than hell
Where niggas will throw hands before they take the L
Saw a pretty young thing with those eyes on me
Bumping The Fugees and Talib Kweli on repeat

She asked "how old are you?"
"Cuz I don't really ever mess around with younger dudes"
Well not to be too rude...
But I ain't food, or some type of roughneck goon
Running around yelling Su-Wu with a broke front tooth

I'm more of that snapping when I'm rapping
Leave you laughing when we chatting
I'll show you a good time while those niggas stunt gold and platinum
Happiest if you decided to kick it tonight
So write them digits on my arm if you about that life...

[Break down]


If you're a pretty young thing put your hands up high

Hands up high 2x

Said if you're feeling yourself just throw them in the sky

Throw them in the sky 2X

Cuz it ain't no party like them NY parties cuz them NY parties don't stop, don't stop
Ya, everyday its all love on the block
So we can kick back feel the vibe, feel the vibe
